buggman, my OHC map lights do not have any electrical contacts on the housing where the bulb goes into like the one in my wife's 99 Explorer that has the "dash light type" holder & bulb with the printed circuit connection for the power. (see attached link).

The "torpedo" type bulb just has a twist lock cap that holds tension on the bulb to make electrical contact I would guess, did not look up in the opening, but mine does not have the printed circuit like in the pic. I will have to take a better look at my OHC to see if something can be done to possibly change it over to the 906 bulbs.
